| - | Here's the background: | + | We aim to build a network and to support Communities of Practice for people interested in maps, apps and storytelling. |
| - | The idea of a Community of Practice developed from David Wilcox's contributions on the advisory group to the Hub for London, where he suggested that the idea of a central resource hub should be extended through network building. Many of these ideas are now recognised in the role of [[hub:networkspartner|Networks Partner]] advertised by the Hub. | + | * [[cop:copindex|More about network development]]. |

| + | ## Context for a network and Communities of Practice | ||
| + | The context for these proposals for a network and one or more Communities of Practice is threefold: | ||
| + | * plans by London Funders and Greater London Volunteering to develop a [Hub for London](http://www.connectinglondoners.blog/2017/new-hub-for-london-gets-350000-to-support-civil-society) as a resource centre for London civil society. This was the key recommendation from a report on The Way Ahead | ||
| + | * [the exploration](http://www.connectinglondoners.blog/2018/our-first-year-exploring-how-to-make-london-a-more) by Connecting Londoners and Our Way Ahead which concluded that a networked approach is needed, complementing or extending the work of the Hub. | ||
| + | * Plans for [London as a Smart City](http://www.connectinglondoners.blog/2018/why-smart-city-london-should-be-a-networkedcity-participatory-sharing) | ||
| + | |||
| + | As a member of the advisory group for the Hub for London, representing Our Way Ahead until February 2018, I prepared a paper that aimed to draw together all recommendations and find common ground between The Way Ahead initiative, Connecting Londoners and Our Way Ahead. | ||
| + | |||
| + | * [Extending the Hub for London](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1FttgXEze5TQgRnBejzhhAFaVHw4_3bRuAL47OvhkOW4/edit#) - commentable version online. | ||

| + | |||
| + | I presented the final proposals for a CoP - 4 below - at a meeting of the advisory group on February 1. The group agreed to consider them further. I retired from the group because I want to promote the idea of the CoP independently, and as a freelance feel there could be conflict of interest in seeking funding. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Many of these ideas for network building are now recognised in the role of [[hub:networkspartner|Networks Partner]] advertised by the Hub. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Supporting these ideas can be one of the areas of development for a network embracing one or more Communities of Practice: [[cop:copindex|more here]] | ||

| In summary: bring together a group of people interested in how to build networks and support network-based action. Develop both a learning network and practical activities that can attract clients and funding. Use the network tools to learn how to build networks in practice. | In summary: bring together a group of people interested in how to build networks and support network-based action.

| The diagram builds on proposals in the documents Extending the Hub and a Community of Practice for networking London civil society, referenced above. In summary what’s needed is a community of people keen to learn how to build networks bottom-up and bottom-across in local communities and pan-London, together with support, service providers, and advisers. Activities would include meet-ups, an online platform, and on-the-ground activities to map and build networks. | The diagram builds on proposals in the documents Extending the Hub and a Community of Practice for networking London civil society, referenced above.
